Welcome to the Office of International Education

About the Office of International Education (OIE):

The OIE serves inbound international students (degree-seeking and short-term exchange)
as well as outbound students interested in studying abroad. We also serve Southern
faculty members interested in establishing programs abroad, and members of the Southern
community interested in participating in a Fulbright Program.

Our current international students come from all over the world, including countries
such as Venezuela, the United Kingdom, Saudi Arabia, China, Germany, Nigeria, Spain,
India, Korea, Belarus, and the Netherlands, and we are excited these numbers are on
the rise! Our staff members are committed to facilitating as smooth a transition as
possible for international students, and we welcome our students to contact us or
stop by our office at any time for assistance, or to see a friendly face!

The OIE also sends SCSU students to over 100 destinations worldwide through our Education
Abroad programs!

SCSU students may study abroad at one of our carefully selected exchange partner universities
while paying SCSU tuition and fees. We also support participation in approved third-party
study abroad affiliates, which provides endless opportunities to study or engage in
internships or service-learning opportunities abroad. Let us help you craft your ideal
study abroad experience!

Please visit the OIE in Engleman Hall 220 during the following hours:Monday through Thursday, 9:00-5:00Friday, 9:00-4:30
